Gentle Iron Complex 60 Tabs Higher Nature
Formulated with iron bisglycinate for maximum absorption and digestive comfort, this gentle iron complex is a convenient choice for supporting energy when levels are low. It also provides copper and vitamin B2, which contribute to normal iron metabolism, along with natural vitamin C from acerola fruit to aid iron absorption in the gut.
What is Gentle Iron Complex?
Gentle Iron Complex is formulated with iron bisglycinate for improved absorption and digestive comfort. It also provides copper and vitamin B2, which contribute to normal iron metabolism, and natural vitamin C from acerola fruit to aid absorption in the gut. Low iron levels may arise from dietary intake (for example, vegetarian or vegan diets) or increased demands such as during pregnancy. Pre-menopausal women may also have a greater need for iron due to monthly losses, particularly if periods are heavy. Iron is essential for red blood cells to transport oxygen, as well as for normal immune function and brain activity.
Why Choose This Formula?
The complex contains well-tolerated iron bisglycinate (iron chelate), which is bound to amino acids for gentler absorption compared to other forms such as iron sulphate. This form is less likely to cause digestive discomfort, and its absorption is less affected by other dietary components such as calcium, tea, or wholegrains.
Who Is It For?
- Pre-menopausal women, especially those with heavier monthly cycles
- Suitable during pregnancy and breastfeeding
- Men with lower dietary iron intake, including vegetarians and vegans
- Children over 12 years, particularly girls during puberty
- Individuals engaged in endurance exercise with increased nutrient demands
